Needle Points

Needle Points is a psych-boogie outfit from Philadelphia formed in 2013. Their music, largely influenced by sixties and seventies vibes, is what punk music would have been if Keith Richards invented it.

Needle Points’ first release Bom Tugangu (2013), intended as a collection of 4-track basement demos, was met with acclaim locally and even internationally. The album, along with their raucous, face-painted, animal suited, hair-for-days live shows, led them to a record deal with indie label PaperCup Music in 2014.

In the fall of 2014, Needle Points worked with Dr. Dog frontman Scott McMicken on their latest release Feel Young. McMicken produced the album and lent his talents as a second guitar player and keyboardist to several tracks. The band parted with PaperCup earlier this year and formed their own label NeedLove Records on which they released Feel Young.
